You know how Steve McClaren used to come across as a bit of a buffoon when he was mismanaging the England team? Well, he's taken his unique brand of doltishness to new heights now; and a new location: the Netherlands, where he's taken up the post of head coach at Eredivisie outfit FC Twente. But - listen closely, here comes the doltish bit! - he's actually started giving interviews to Dutch TV stations in English but with a comedy Dutch accent! Check it out - it is bloody hilarious! (if Allo Allo had been set in the Netherlands, this is what it would have sounded like.)

Unbelievable. I couldn't even bring myself to watch it to the end. Still, I must admit I was hoping that by some miracle his team would stuf the Arse.
Cringeworthy, isn't it? Finally we send another English football personage abroad and he shows us up like this. Gah!
Bless him. He wants to be understood. Makes Sven sound like Brian Sewell (that English art critic twat).
Apparently he kept the Dutch accent even when he was interviewed by Setanta UK prior to the game. Maybe he really is going Dutch!
